Fitz at QB; walking wounded
Ryan Fitzpatrick was taking the first-team snaps at quarterback during the portion of practice the media watched as the Bills worked in Ralph Wilson Stadium.
Not in attendance were receivers Roscoe Parrish and Justin Jenkins, offensive tackles Jonathan Scott and Demetrius Bell, defensive tackle Marcus Stroud and linebacker Keith Ellison. Watching practice but not working in individual drills were safety Jairus Byrd, cornerback Terrence McGee and cornerback Ashton Youboty.
Safety Bryan Scott continued to work at linebacker ahead of rookies Nic Harris and Ashlee Palmer.
Given the tackle injuries, gurad Andy Levitre is likely to start at left tackle and perhaps Kirk Chambers at right tackle. Scott practiced at right tackle all last week but missed the game at Tennessee due to the death of his father.
